Subject: Easter Greetings letter
Hello, and hope this letter finds you well.
As we near the weekend where we reflect upon our Saviour's death and
resurrection, it seems a good time for Joy and I to write and wish your
home many blessings, spiritual and otherwise.
`Hhesed' is the Hebrew word meaning Steadfast Mercy. "Surely goodness and
Hhesed shall follow me all the days of my life." "Hhesed and truth have
met together; righteousness and peace have kissed." (Psalms 23:6,85:1O).
It is though the Death of Jesus on the Cross that the steadfast,
covenantal Love of God became available to sinners; it was through His
Resurrection that believers receive assurance of peace and a good standing
with the Father (see Romans 4:25).
Joy and I are thankful for many blessings we have already enjoyed in 1996.
Joy is near the top of her Commercial Baking class, even though she was
hindered by a few exhausting bouts of the flu. I (Kenzie) recently
celebrated a very happy 3Oth birthday, joined in Halifax by my parents
from Sydney and my brother from New Brunswick. My weekly Internet
publication, Sunday Snippets, continues into it's third year, undoubtably
with increased readership. We are happy to be involved in the details of
founding a new church in Halifax, Covenant Reformed Presbyterian. Our
other daily blessings are too numerous to count.
We send you the best of Easter greetings. May God keep you continually in
His Hhesed.
Warmly yours because He lives,
MacKenzie & Joy.
